I was crushing big time on Cardew Bishop, my boss, even though he was the world's biggest bully. With Gran’s help, I designed the spell and went to the forest to do it.

Cardew was also the owner's son, and king of the garden centre. His family made its money by destroying the environment, so it was easy to hate him... even though he was annoyingly handsome.

But when I learned his company was going to cut down the town’s 1000-year-old forest for a big engineering project, we were determined to make a stand.

That made Cardew Bishop my enemy, and my all-consuming attraction to him was difficult to separate from my hatred of everything he and his family stood for.

But I still wanted him. More than ever.

Dark Forest Dryad Book 1, Devastation, Gran told me I was descended from a woodland tree spirit. I’d always assumed I was a nobody, like my predatory handsome boss thought, but she’d said I was fae royalty, and somehow I knew my mysterious connection to the forest would cast a shadow over my future.
